Comparison between experimental and simulation results for sample #1 SGL R6650. Experimental (black) and simulated (red) radial surface velocity as a function of time for 20 μs after beam impact for a beam intensity of 1 × 1011 ppp (a). Normalized power spectral densities for the first 100 μs after beam impact of the simulation and the experiment at two different beam intensities (b).
